The focus is on circular nets with one or two families of spherical parameter lines, which are treated in M\"obius geometry. These circular nets provide a discretisation of surfaces with one or two families of spherical curvature lines. The…

Discrete linear Weingarten surfaces in space forms are characterized as special discrete $\Omega$-nets, a discrete analogue of Demoulin's $\Omega$-surfaces. It is shown that the Lie-geometric deformation of $\Omega$-nets descends to a…

A general net of quadric surfaces, together with a choice of a base point, defines a net of plane cubics via the Gale transformation of the remaining seven base points. To both nets, one can also naturally associate the same smooth plane…

Discretizing variational principles, as opposed to discretizing differential equations, leads to discrete-time analogues of mechanics, and, systematically, to geometric numerical integrators. The phase space of such variational…
